We had a tough day. We had two shots but couldn&#39;t make it happen. Bait would have worked but that wasn&#39;t what we wanted to do. Pro Tip: Sometimes you have to be prepared to catch nothing to try and catch them the way you want to.

We went out looking for sharks. We ended up with four dusky and sandbar shark in the 100 pound range. We had to cut the trip a bit short due to approaching thunder storms. Better safe than sorry. Pro Tip: Due to the curvature of the earth, radar becomes less effective at spotting other vessels over six miles. However, it becomes an effective weather radar out to its maximum range.

Ocean conditions prevented us from sharking and we went flounder fishing in the bay. We caught a bunch of shorts and had a good time. Pro Tip: Never discount the backup plan. Learn to enjoy the day and do whatever the weather let&#39;s you do.

The last few days were unfishable due to the winds and storms. Today we finally had good weather. We had a fabulous day with six releases. We had five releases in the 100 pound range. We had four big dusky sharks and one giant sandbar shark. We also had a brown shark. The bite continues to produce quality fish. Pro Tip: When fighting big fish and they swim at the boat just wind like crazy. Pumping and winding in this situation can tangle the slack line on the rod tip.Captain Joe Hugheshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10509192890703494564noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4651542381585407984.post-72391369595675805632018-07-22T22:22:00.001-04:002018-07-22T22:22:53.289-04:00Big Shark<p class="mobile-photo"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-n5i4a-GVGOw/W1U7_qUM_tI/AAAAAAAARZE/6NF0wMGR1aIqjL1qnXucsuuexaigDe4dgCK4BGAYYCw/s1600/IMG_8843-773362.JPG"><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-n5i4a-GVGOw/W1U7_qUM_tI/AAAAAAAARZE/6NF0wMGR1aIqjL1qnXucsuuexaigDe4dgCK4BGAYYCw/s320/IMG_8843-773362.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_6581232395348672210" /></a></p><p class="mobile-photo"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9p5bYrIi6es/W1U8AtAjzrI/AAAAAAAARZM/clPgrewc2Y0YhVKJjhxO0YtIMLUB2sp9QCK4BGAYYCw/s1600/IMG_8850-776246.JPG"><img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9p5bYrIi6es/W1U8AtAjzrI/AAAAAAAARZM/clPgrewc2Y0YhVKJjhxO0YtIMLUB2sp9QCK4BGAYYCw/s320/IMG_8850-776246.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_6581232413251456690" /></a></p>Fished today with Jack and Kale in the ocean for sharks.
